The Chinese century is well under way

There is a risk of just talking about China all the time but this infographic has got us standing up, doing high fives. A visual representation showing the power shift back to the east. A weighted chart of GDP vs. Latitude & Longitude.

Some mind blowing insights as well:

1. The Global centre of economic gravity is now in Siberia given China’s meteoric 900% GDP growth per person since the 1990s.

2. China has bought more than 740 million of its residents out of poverty since 1990.

3. Since the financial crisis in 2008, China has accounted for 45% of the growth in world GDP.
